Spanish for Expats and Residents

Live locally? Come Learn Spanish With Us!

If you live here, you know that Costa Rica is one of the most inviting places to live in the world. But only when you speak the language can you feel truly at home. Sure, you can get by speaking English or your native language, but when you learn to speak like a Tico, you can open the doors to connections and contacts that can help you in your personal and professional relationships.

Custom Programs

First, we understand that your needs are much more explicit than our visiting students, and we personalize our programs to meet your needs at your Spanish level. We offer schedule flexibility and a comfortable, beautiful location here in the Central Valley. Classes are either one on one (private), or small groups of up to three people of a similar Spanish level.

We Help You Understand Tico Culture

More importantly still, we act as your intercultural guide on your journey to becoming a true Costa Rican local. We help you to understand the culture, our local sayings, gestures, legends and stories.

We answer those questions that build up in your everyday life, and help shed light on the confusing customs that don’t make sense. You can role play communications with business associates, learn how to network the Costa Rican way, and learn little sayings that can endear you to the locals around you.

You will learn

How to talk like a Tico (Useful Spanish phrases and expressions)

How to understand non-verbal communication cues

How to navigate the bank, the supermarket, restaurants, meetings, family visits and more

Technical vocabulary according to your needs

Class Schedule
